You guys seriously don't know what you're missing. There's hardly anyone there, and you can comment 'till the cows come home without anybody stepping all over you.
And wait till you see all the cool new features. The Groups feature allows you to make your own areas with your own interests. I set up one called "Westchester NY Activists" just so people in my area can talk about our local issues and maybe get to know one another.
I also set up a group called "Religion Watchdogs" so we can keep an eye on Fred Phelps and Tony Perkins.
This is a major fun cool new Kos. Everyone should come by and say hello. We're all feeling a bit lonely. Acutally, it feels like this site did a few years ago, when there weren't 100 million members.
